Diana Michener: MortesDiana Michener: Mortes

Published by Steidl.

In three visual and thematically organized chapters, Diana Michener (born 1940) explores her complex relationship to the subject of death. From heads of slaughtered cows to 19th-century fetuses preserved in formaldehyde, Michener records the brute physicality of life’s most fascinating and universal phenomenon: death.

Between 2018 and 2021, inspired by 19th-century photography, Diana Michener (born 1940) photographed human and animal bones in museum collections, realizing them in platinum prints. Bones recreates the look of these prints through offset printing on Somerset Book mold-made paper, each image interspersed with glassine leaves.

Diana Michener: Twenty-Eight Figure StudiesDiana Michener: Twenty-Eight Figure Studies

Published by Steidl.

In her black-and-white pictures, artist Diana Michener (born 1940) repurposes stills from pornographic films and transforms them into ambiguous and expressive images, which maintain an emotional—rather than an explicit—tenor. Her impressionistic works are reproduced here.

Diana Michener: SweetheartsDiana Michener: Sweethearts

Published by Steidl Photography International.

Currently based in Paris and New York, Diana Michener--who was born in 1940, studied with Lisette Model at The New School in New York and with Ansel Adams at Yosemite and frequently collaborates with her own sweetheart, Jim Dine--has said of Sweethearts, "This work in another form was shown at The New York Film Festival in 1982. It still remains, for me, a study in indecision. The Sweethearts are emblematic of that thing that can exist between couples, when one can not assume the persona of the other." Taking the form of a flipbook, Sweethearts (starring Wallace Shawn and Deborah Eisenberg) is a series of film stills depicting those overlooked, banal and dramatic moments that take place in a couple's domestic space. Sometimes quiet, sometimes animated, the subjects are pictured together in an intimate exploration of the vagaries of love and life.
